Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground breakfast sausage
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cans Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 tbsp Butter (optional, for greasing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
If needed, lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and cooked through. Break it into crumbles as it cooks.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet, then reduce the heat to low.
Add the cream cheese to the skillet with the sausage. Stir until the cream cheese is fully melted and combined with the sausage.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. Set the mixture aside to cool slightly.
Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, sealing the perforated seams to create an even layer.
Spread the sausage and cheese mixture evenly over the crescent dough layer in the baking dish.
Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and place it over the sausage mixture, again sealing the seams to create a smooth top layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Allow the dish to cool for 5 minutes before cutting into squares.
Serve warm and enjoy!
